Basic networking: Each router and switch needs a unique IP address if you want them to appear as individual items. If both networks have the same IP address for the router you will have all kinds of communication issues if they work at all. If your goal is failover, you cannot have both routers live at the same time- one must be on standby and have a heart beat communication to the active one. If you have your switches stacked, they could appear as one switch with one IP address and be managed from the same web site, but then they would not appear to SW as separate switches.

Also from what you indicate, the only way to get the switches to appear on the same network as the routers is to "super" net : Use the 192.168.0.0 network with a netmask of 255.255.0.0 which would autolink all 192.168.x.x networks but you would also have a network of 255*255 devices instead of 255+255 joining 192.168.1.0 net with a 192.168.0.0. network and that many more devices to attempt to locate.

If you are using the routers to link the networks, each would have to connect to both networks in addition to the Internet but still could not have the same address nor could the networks behind the router be identical or traffic will not route outside the internal network. You would then link the networks by setting up static routes to the other router's network by directing traffic through the shared interfaces.

FYI: A network of 192.168.1.0 using a router gateway at 192.168.1.1 could direct traffic to a second network at 192.168.0.0 if it had a shared interface. The second router could have a 192.168.1.2 interface on it with a cable linking to the first router. Then a static route of 192.168.1.0, netmask 255.255.255.0 with a gateway of 192.168.1.1 on the second router would allow the .0.0 network to talk to the first. A mirror static route of 192.168.0.0, netmask 255.255.255.0 with a gateway of 192.168.1.2 would allow the first network to talk to the second. Both are necessary for the two networks to communicate.

One shows 'cloud' with no info and the router node & it's IP to internet. No other data on this tree. Nothing in the top 5 tab etc.... and nothing connected

The other router to which I am direct connected to shows two clouds leading from the router. The router shows nothing under the top 5 tab. First cloud shows IP to the internet with no other data. Second cloud show 5 entries with data captured at the router level for packets in\out. My router is among the 5 entries. The other two entries in the list show as unused.
